Finding Meaning Joy and Happiness (FMJH) Project Logs

Part One

Name: ______ _________________ Section Time: ______________________

A. Personal Values: Reflect on what you value and how those values guide your daily choices. For example, your core values might include constructs such as Religion, Education, or Family.

My Core Values:

How Exactly Does This Value Guide Your Choices:

1

Honesty

This value drives me to make realistic decisions that I can account for. It makes me to reflect keenly on the decisions the I make and identify what went I did wrong.

2

Collaboration

Some decisions and activities are hard to make alone, and I believe consultation makes me to be in a position to gather sufficient information to make decisions.

3

Self-improvement

I am imperfect. I make mistakes, but believe in never making the same mistake twice. So I look at past mistakes to enable me make better decisions and improve myself.

B. Fitness Log: Practice fitness for a minimum of 30 minutes, 3 times a week, for 3 weeks. Complete the log chronicling the activities you chose and be specific. Be sure to vary your fitness experiences—in other words, doing cardio for each activity is not acceptable.

E. Genetics / Risk Taking: Have a discussion with members of your family to identify 3 risk factors associated with your genetic history for illnesses/health problems (e.g., Type II Diabetes, Prostate Cancer) and then comment on ways that you can help reduce this risk. Then, identify and reflect on 3 of your current risk behaviors (e.g., drinking too much alcohol, drug and cigarette use, poor diet, etc.) that, if continued, may negatively affect your health, and then record what you can do to reduce your risk.
